Despite excellent progress has been made, the performance of deep learning based algorithms still heavily rely on specific datasets, which are difficult to extend due to labor-intensive labeling. Moreover, because of the advancement of new applications, initial definition of data annotations might not always meet the requirements of new functionalities. Thus, there is always a great demand in customized data annotations. To address the above issues, we propose the Few-Shot Model Adaptation (FSMA) framework and demonstrate its potential on several important tasks on Faces. The FSMA first acquires robust facial image embeddings by training an adversarial auto-encoder using large-scale unlabeled data. Then the model is equipped with feature adaptation and fusion layers, and adapts to the target task efficiently using a minimal amount of annotated images. The FSMA framework is prominent in its versatility across a wide range of facial image applications. The FSMA achieves state-of-the-art few-shot landmark detection performance and it offers satisfying solutions for few-shot face segmentation, stylization and facial shadow removal tasks for the first time.

In recent years, significant progress has been made in the research of facial landmark detection. However, few prior works have thoroughly discussed about models for practical applications. Instead, they often focus on improving a couple of issues at
a time while ignoring the others. To bridge this gap, we aim to explore a practical model that is accurate, robust, efficient, generalizable, and end-to-end trainable at the same time. To this end, we first propose a baseline model equipped with one transformer decoder as detection head. In order to achieve a better accuracy, we further propose two lightweight modules, namely dynamic query initialization (DQInit) and query-aware memory (QAMem). Specifically, DQInit dynamically initializes the queries of decoder from the inputs, enabling the model to achieve as good accuracy as the ones with multiple decoder layers. QAMem is designed to enhance the discriminative ability of queries on low-resolution feature maps by assigning separate memory values to each query rather than a shared one. With the help of QAMem, our model removes the dependence on high-resolution feature maps and is still able to obtain superior accuracy. Extensive experiments and analysis on three popular benchmarks show the effectiveness and practical advantages of the proposed model. Notably, our model achieves new state of the art on WFLW as well as competitive results on 300W and COFW, while still running at 50+ FPS.
Many Few-Shot Learning research works have two stages: pre-training base model and adapting to novel model. In this paper, we propose to use closed-form base learner, which constrains the adapting stage with pre-trained base model to get better gener
alized novel model. Following theoretical analysis proves its rationality as well as indication of how to train a well-generalized base model. We then conduct experiments on four benchmarks and achieve state-of-the-art performance in all cases. Notably, we achieve the accuracy of 87.75% on 5-shot miniImageNet which approximately outperforms existing methods by 10%.
To address the annotation scarcity issue in some cases of semantic segmentation, there have been a few attempts to develop the segmentation model in the few-shot learning paradigm. However, most existing methods only focus on the traditional 1-way se
gmentation setting (i.e., one image only contains a single object). This is far away from practical semantic segmentation tasks where the K-way setting (K>1) is usually required by performing the accurate multi-object segmentation. To deal with this issue, we formulate the few-shot semantic segmentation task as a learning-based pixel classification problem and propose a novel framework called MetaSegNet based on meta-learning. In MetaSegNet, an architecture of embedding module consisting of the global and local feature branches is developed to extract the appropriate meta-knowledge for the few-shot segmentation. Moreover, we incorporate a linear model into MetaSegNet as a base learner to directly predict the label of each pixel for the multi-object segmentation. Furthermore, our MetaSegNet can be trained by the episodic training mechanism in an end-to-end manner from scratch. Experiments on two popular semantic segmentation datasets, i.e., PASCAL VOC and COCO, reveal the effectiveness of the proposed MetaSegNet in the K-way few-shot semantic segmentation task.
In this work, we use facial landmarks to make the deformation for facial images more authentic. The deformation includes the expansion of eyes and the shrinking of noses, mouths, and cheeks. An advanced 106-point facial landmark detector is utilized
to provide control points for deformation. Bilinear interpolation is used in the expansion and Moving Least Squares methods (MLS) including Affine Deformation, Similarity Deformation and Rigid Deformation are used in the shrinking. We compare the running time as well as the quality of deformed images using different MLS methods. The experimental results show that the Rigid Deformation which can keep other parts of the images unchanged performs better even if it takes the longest time.
Reducing the amount of supervision required by neural networks is especially important in the context of semantic segmentation, where collecting dense pixel-level annotations is particularly expensive. In this paper, we address this problem from a ne
w perspective: Incremental Few-Shot Segmentation. In particular, given a pretrained segmentation model and few images containing novel classes, our goal is to learn to segment novel classes while retaining the ability to segment previously seen ones. In this context, we discover, against all beliefs, that fine-tuning the whole architecture with these few images is not only meaningful, but also very effective. We show how the main problems of end-to-end training in this scenario are i) the drift of the batch-normalization statistics toward novel classes that we can fix with batch renormalization and ii) the forgetting of old classes, that we can fix with regularization strategies. We summarize our findings with five guidelines that together consistently lead to the state of the art on the COCO and Pascal-VOC 2012 datasets, with different number of images per class and even with multiple learning episodes.
